Skip a rope.

Daddy hates momma and momma hates dad
Last night, you should’ve heard the fight they had
It gave little sister another bad dream
She woke us all up with a terrible scream.

Skip a rope, skip a rope,

Awwwww Listen to the children
While they play
Now, ain’t it kinda’ funny
What the children say.

Skip a rope.

Cheat on your taxes, don’t be a fool
Now, what was that they said about a Golden Rule?
Well, never mind the rules, just play to win
And hate your neighbor for the shade of their skin.

Skip a rope, skip a rope.

Awww Listen to the children
While they play
Now, ain’t it kinda’ funny
What the children say.

Skip a rope.

Stab ’em in the back,
That’s the name of the game
And momma and daddy
Are who’s to blame.

Skip a rope, skip a rope.

Awww Listen to the children
While they play
It’s really not very funny
What the children say.

Oh, son I loved my native land
with energy and pride
‘Til a blight came over on my crops,
my sheep and cattle died,
The rent and taxes were so high,
I could not them redeem,
And that’s the cruel reason why
I left old Skibbereen.

Oh, It’s well I do remember
that bleak December day,
The landlord and the sheriff came
to drive us all away
They set my roof on fire with their
demon yellow spleen
And that’s another reason why
I left old Skibbereen.

Your mother too, God rest her soul,
fell on the snowy ground,
She fainted in her anguish seeing
the desolation round.
She never rose but passed away
from life to mortal dream,
She found a quiet grave, my boy
in dear old Skibbereen.

And you were only two years old
and feeble was your frame,
I could not leave you with your friends,
you bore your father’s name,
I wrapped you in my cóta mór
in the dead of night unseen
I heaved a sigh and said goodbye
to dear old Skibbereen

You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don’t you call me ’cause I can’t go
I owe my soul to the company store

I was born one mornin’, it was drizzlin’ rain
Fightin’ and trouble are my middle name
I was raised in the canebrake by an ol’ mama lion
Cain’t no-a high-toned woman make me walk the line

You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don’t you call me ’cause I can’t go
I owe my soul to the company store

If you see me comin’, better step aside
A lotta men didn’t, a lotta men died
One fist of iron, the other of steel
If the right one don’t a-get you
Then the left one will

You load sixteen tons, what do you get

LIESL

I am sixteen going on seventeen
I know that I’m naive
Fellows I meet may tell me I’m sweet
And willingly I believe
I am sixteen going on seventeen
Innocent as a rose
Bachelor dandies, drinkers of brandies
What do I know of those
Totally unprepared am I
To face a world of men
Timid and shy and scared am I
Of things beyond my ken
I need someone older and wiser
Telling me what to do
You are seventeen going on eighteen
I’ll depend on you

For those who don`t know a Boomer is a large male kangaroo and a joey
is a baby kangaroo.

1.
4 4 4 4 6 6 6 6 -6-6 -5-6 6
Early on one Christmas day a Joey kangaroo
6 5 6 4 -4 5 4 -4 5 4 6
Was far from home and lost in a great big zoo
4 4 4 4 6 6 6 -6-6 -5 -6 6
«Mummy where`s my mummy they`ve taken her away»

(spoken) «we`ll help you find your mummy son,
hop up on the sleigh»
4 4 4 4 6 6 6 -6-6 -5-6 6
Up beside the bag of toys little Joey hopped
5 6 4-4 5 4 -4 5 4 6
But they hadn`t gone far when Santa stopped
6 4 4 4 4 6 6 6 -6-6 -5 -6
Unharnessed all the reindeer and Joey wondered
6
why
4 4 4 4 5 6 -4-5 5 -4 4
Then he heard a far off booming in the sky
Chorus
4 4 5 6 7 5 6 -6 6
Six White Boomers snow white boomers
5 6 4-4 5 4 -4 5 4 6
Racing Santa Claus through the blazing sun
4 4 5 6 7 -5-6 -6 6
Six White Boomers snow white boomers
4 4 -4 5 -4 4
On his Australian run
2.
Pretty soon old Santa began to feel the heat
Took his fur lined boots of to cool his feet
Into one popped Joey, feeling quite OK
While those old man kangaroos kept pulling on the sleigh
3.
Joey said to Santa «Santa what about the toys?
Aren`t you giving some tothese girls and boys?»
«They`ve all got their presents son, we were here last night
This trip is an extra trip, Joey`s special flight
4.
Soon the sleigh was flashing past right over Marble Bar
«Slow down there» cried Santa «it can`t be far
Come up on my lap here son, and have a look around»
«There she is that`s Mummy, bounding up and down»
5.
Well that`s the bestest Christmas treat that Joey ever had
Curled up in mothers pouch all snug and glad
The last they saw was Santa heading Northward from the sun
The only year the boomers worked a double run.

If there are any problems or you have any imput please message me
and let me know.

Based on the English lyrics by JubyPhonic

3 4 -4 4 -4 4 -4 444

Once a upon a time and place unknown

3 4 -4 4 -4 4 -4 43

Lived a boy forgot and left all alone

34 -4 4 -4 4 -4 4 -4 5 -4 -4 -4 44

No one knew what he could do or of this fairytale

3 4 -4 4 -4 4 -4 444

Probably since before the day I was born

3 4 -4 4 -4 4 -4 43

Call it fate but I was drowned with scorn

34 -4 4 -4 4 -4 4 -4 5 -4 -4 -4 44

No one tried to be on my side so I’d turn the other cheek

5 6 -6 -6 -6 65

I can’t help my feeling sad

56 -4 -4 -4 4 5

Though I guess it ain’t too bad

56-6-7-6 6 5

Calling from the setting sun

55-6-6-66-7

Took my hand and flew away

56-656-6

Tell me why Tell me why

65-4 -4 -4 4 5

No one ever tells me why

56-6-6 -6 -6 -6 6 56 -4 -4 -4 45

Why they hate me and despise me when I haven’t done a thing

56-6 56-6-6 8-8-8-87-6

In the rain all I feel is this never ending chill

56-6-6-6-6-6656-7-7-77-6

But a trillion trillion trillion years had left me freezing
cold

56-656-6

Can I die? Can I die?

65-4 -4 -4 4 5

I’m just waiting ’til I die

56-6-6 -6 -6 -6 6 56 -4 -4 -4 45

Never dreamed a single dream so kind in my entire life

56-6 56-6-6 8-8-8-87-6

No one knew, even cared for this fleeting fairy tail

56-6-6-6-6-6656-7-7-77-6

Then it slipped into seething sun and soon it sailed away

3 4 -4 4 -4 4 -4 444

All this time it bore right down to the core

3 4 -4 4 -4 4 -4 43

All the pain had torn and left me sore

34 -4 4 -4 4 -4 4 -4 5 -4 -4 -4 44

Right behind you had all this time been watching from my side

3 4 -4 4 -4 4 -4 444

Cannot look or hear or speak to me

3 4 -4 4 -4 4 -4 43

But you did «Your name, will you tell me it please?»

34 -4 4 -4 4 -4 4 -4 5 -4 -4 -4 44

I can’t give and I wish I did But I just don’t have the tongue

5 6 -6 -6 -6 65

Crave a home I’ve never had

56 -4 -4 -4 4 5

Though I guess it ain’t too bad

56-6-7-6 6 5

«Let’s just leave and go back home»

55-6-6-66-7

Take my hand and fly away

56-656-6

Tell me why Tell me why

65-4 -4 -4 4 5

No one ever tells me why

56-6-6 -6 -6 -6 6 56 -4 -4 -4 45

Why you think you’re just a kid when you can do so many things

56-6 56-6-6 8-8-8-87-6

On my own never known of this light leading me home

56-6-6-6-6-6656-7-7-77-6

But a trillion trillion trillion years had taught me I’m alone

56-656-6

«Can I try? Can I try?»

65-4 -4 -4 4 5

«Never know until I try»

56-6-6 -6 -6 -6 6 56 -4 -4 -4 45

But they’ll kill you if they see you trying now to save my
life

56-6 56-6-6 8-8-8-87-6

In the rain all we feel is this never ending chill

56-6-6-6-6-6656-7-7-77-6

But we’ll slip into the seething sun and soon we’ll sail away

-6-6-6-6-6656-4-4-445

Day is done now and soon the dawn will break

-4-4565-45-45-445

Play ’til we drop so that we’ll never have to wake

-6-6-6-6-6656-7-7-77-6

What if this place was made of only me and you?

-4-4-4-4565-45-45-445

If just the world and everyone would all go away

-4-4-4-4565-45-6-6-66-7

If just the world and everyone would all go away

56-656-6

Tell me why Tell me why

65-4 -4 -4 4 5

A small voice will tell me why

56-6-6 -6 -6 -6 6 56 -4 -4 -4 45

No it’s not the voice of you or I but ALL MAN KIND

56-6 56-6-6 8-8-8-87-6

Can’t resist, we’ll be missed That’s a lie but I insist

56-6-6-6-6-6656-7-7-77-6

That we’ll slip into the seething sun and soon we’ll sail away

56-656-6

Tell me why Tell me why

65-4 -4 -4 4 5

Though you answer to me «why?»

56-6-6 -6 -6 -6 6 56 -4 -4 -4 45

What’s your name and where’re we going? But hell that’s the fun of
life!

56-6 56-6-6 8-8-8-87-6

In the rain I don’t care just as long as you are there

56-6-6-6-6-6656-7-7-77-6

Cuz a trillion trillion trillion years had left me thinking
clear

56-6 56-6-6 8-8-8-87-6

Tell me why Tell me dear There’s ringing in my ear

56-6-6-6-6-6656-7-7-77-6

Then we slipped into the seething sun and finally sailed away
